Posted on: Edgar Co., IL Queries Reply Here: http://cgi.rootsweb.com/~genbbs/genbbs.cgi/USA/Il/Edgar/10588 Surname: Hurst, Lanham, Willard ------------------------- As an update to this message, birth record in hand now shows subject to be Artie May Hurst born 1905 in Kentucky found in Edgar County 1921 at birth of first child. She married Gurnie Elmer Lanham from Vermilion Illinois born 1898. The child named Elmer Eugene Lanham was born Oct 17, 1921 in Chrisman, Edgar County Illinois. Artie May Hurst (only 16 years old at time she gave birth) may have died after this, as child raised by relatives or another family named Willards from Indiana. Gurnie Elmer Lanham went on to marry soon after, and had many more children, however, first child never returned to this family. If any Hurst can place ARtie May born 1905 with a family that migrated from to Kentucky to Edgar County at this time, will welcome the information. More records are being sought currently through Illinois and Indiana.
